Thanks man.

I wasn't feeling too eloquent when I wrote it. This just really disturbs me.

If time permits, I plan to condense and refine the above post into a letter I will send in and we'll see if it gets published.

Every time I really get to know someone from General Fraternity, I find a brother who I can really respect and has good ideas. I have yet to run into the sort of person who seems to be actively promoting what many of us are worried about.

So maybe it is a communication thing? I just don't know. But something is not making sense here.

The guys I have met in person from the GF all seem like good guys also...however never judge a person by their words, always judge by their actions.

In my observation of their actions many are NOT good brothers.

I know that I come across as having a very negative opinion of the GF. I can assure you that my opinion is founded based on my many experiences working with people there. Not everyone mind you, but I do not want to get into naming people on an internet message board.

Interesting side note, I heard this weekend from another GLO member that the same discussion is happening over there too.

So this is something to watch closely. Might not just be a Beta thing but part of a general movement among many GLOs. So, it could be indicative of something that many GLO leaderships are considering.

If that is the case, then I would be a bit more open-minded to hearing the reasons why- assuming someone wants to state them clearly and then back them up with supported evidence for the conclusions.

I don't think it'll ever happen. If it's the talk-of-the-town among greeks, I assure you it'll pan out like 'dry housing'. Phi Delt and FIJI will go first, nobody else will follow - three years from now, it's no big deal.

Unless the GF decides it wants to add another 'First' to the list.

Although this first will definitely lead to our last.

I'm making a roadtrip to Oxford this weekend. Maybe I'll be able to ask some of the GF staff their thoughts on the subject.

ECU,

I'd just warn you. Don't believe what a person says, only what their actions are. Obviously it's already being debated at a National level to reveal our brotherhood traditions. If anyone tells you not to worry about it, they are lying.
